The house is less than 1k from the village centre, with a very pleasant coastal walk, where there are good shops and excellent restaurants. There are a few beaches within walking distance: as well as the local beach which is accessible down some steps, the main beach at St Marc sur Mer is very good with a café and a restaurant overlooking it. La Baule is about 7k, with its famous crescent beach voted one of the best in the world The town is lively by day and by night offering all water sports, golf, polo, horse-riding, casinos and an excellent range of restaurants. There is plenty to visit in this part of Brittany without driving far: the walled town of Guérande, La Grande Brière (wildlife reserve), the port of Le Croisic, the salt marshes and fishing villages such as Piriac sur Mer.

"We had a very nice time at the villa - the owner is charming and we all thought the house delightful - very interesting paintings, period furniture and decor. We loved the local beach which was nearer than I thought. The walk into the village was pleasant even by road and St Marc still has a quiet and tranquil air about it - it really seems rather a secret out-of-the-way place which made it all the more special. My youngest daughter did some riding on the beach at La Baule through a local riding stable (Manege des Platanes) - they couldn't have been nicer to her and I would recommend it.
So, a lovely place, an easy drive down from St Malo and warm weather even if not always sunny. "

"The house was brilliant - very well equipped. We are all good walkers, so there were at least 5 beaches within walking distance. La Baule, about half an hour's drive, has everything."

The K family - (8/2010)

"Warm welcome, fabulous homely house. We enjoyed many things whilst we were there, including trips to La Baule (the jazz was terrific), the salt pans of La Guerande were of interest too, plus shopping, the port at Saint Nazaire, and my little girl especially loved the beach nearby - particularly good for those with small children with its rock pools and other families with children."

The H family - (7/2009)

"The cottage was lovely, typically French, which we loved, in a great location, well equipped. Thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, many thanks."

Mrs J - (8/2008)

"The area is very attractive with quick and easy access to beaches both within walking distance and a short drive away at La Baule. The wider hinterland has many picturesque towns, particularly the coastal villages. Guerande and Le Croisic stand out."

The C family - (8/2007)

"Total privacy, security, peace and quiet, very French, upmarket and chic, beautiful quiet beaches in a 'Riviera' setting, good for middle aged people and families."

Mr and Mrs K - (5/2007)

"Great find! Charming owner. Very private even with owner next door. Very well equipped - wifi big bonus with teenagers. Beautiful restored although little impractical for a holiday house - needed to make sure all showered off before entering after the beach. Great location - beach across the road with other walkable options, plenty to see within short distance and village very accessible with good selection of restaurants. Definitely recommend"
